Class
GtkMessageDialog
deprecated: 4.10
Description [src]
final class Gtk.MessageDialog : Gtk.Dialog
implements Gtk.Accessible, Gtk.Buildable, Gtk.ConstraintTarget, Gtk.Native, Gtk.Root, Gtk.ShortcutManager {
/* No available fields */
}GtkMessageDialog presents a dialog with some message text.
It’s simply a convenience widget; you could construct the equivalent of
GtkMessageDialog from GtkDialog without too much effort, but
GtkMessageDialog saves typing.
The easiest way to do a modal message dialog is to use the GTK_DIALOG_MODAL
flag, which will call gtk_window_set_modal() internally. The dialog will
prevent interaction with the parent window until it’s hidden or destroyed.
You can use the GtkDialog::response signal to know when the user
dismissed the dialog.
An example for using a modal dialog:
GtkDialogFlags flags = GTK_DIALOG_DESTROY_WITH_PARENT | GTK_DIALOG_MODAL;
dialog = gtk_message_dialog_new (parent_window,
flags,
GTK_MESSAGE_ERROR,
GTK_BUTTONS_CLOSE,
"Error reading “%s”: %s",
filename,
g_strerror (errno));
// Destroy the dialog when the user responds to it
// (e.g. clicks a button)
g_signal_connect (dialog, "response",
G_CALLBACK (gtk_window_destroy),
NULL);
You might do a non-modal GtkMessageDialog simply by omitting the
GTK_DIALOG_MODAL flag:
GtkDialogFlags flags = GTK_DIALOG_DESTROY_WITH_PARENT;
dialog = gtk_message_dialog_new (parent_window,
flags,
GTK_MESSAGE_ERROR,
GTK_BUTTONS_CLOSE,
"Error reading “%s”: %s",
filename,
g_strerror (errno));
// Destroy the dialog when the user responds to it
// (e.g. clicks a button)
g_signal_connect (dialog, "response",
G_CALLBACK (gtk_window_destroy),
NULL);
GtkMessageDialog as GtkBuildable
The GtkMessageDialog implementation of the GtkBuildable interface exposes
the message area as an internal child with the name “message_area”.
